Pull the handbrake. Stop Earth mid-lecture and half spin. It’s about time we stepped off. This blue and green brick called home is poised and ready to shatter the delicate masquerade of reality. Give me leisure to last a lifetime. The antidote for monotony’s venom. A tropical paradise worthy of a freeway billboard, with a kitsch slogan, and a smiling couple to match. Tie your daydreams end to end like sheets ready for the great escape. The thickets are hacked back, and everything is clear. Whisper the safe word to a shitty day. The password to nirvana. Say it with me. Repeat it to be sure. Melbourne, Australia.
